Consumed In The Darkness

The Sun has finally set
and it's rays shall not return
I'm walking in the darkness
but I find it's light still burns

I've been on this path before
yet this time it feels different
I tried to read this map
but everything is not how it's written

taking just another step,
a step without direction
a step into the realm of confusion
a step that leaves no impression

yet in everything I see and do
all I see is you
staring right back with that smile
that sick and twisted disguise
and it's then I realise
all I'm being is you

is this all I'm living for?
pages of meaningless existence,
where the lines have faded
and the moment is lost in an instant

continuously searching
for the air to my next breath
but I find with every inhalation
is this distinctive scent of death

for my body has kept on living
but my soul has passed on
I'm grabbing for an identity
but my chance is so long gone

cause in everything I see and do
all I see is you
staring right back with that smile
that sick and twisted disguise
and it's then I realise
all I've been is you

I tried to fight the feeling
but when the battle was ensued
and I stepped out of the darkness
I was just more confused

it seems there's no rhyme or reason
that explains why I'm like you
so I simply have to wonder
if you're feeling like this too

as I walk back into the darkness
trying to find why I'm so consumed
I'm diggin up the past
waiting for my soul to be exhumed

but the truth has finally dawned on me
and it's not how I presumed
cause I've finally realised
the only light has been you
